"Richie you serious?" Eddie said entering that low-lighten room, Richie nodded which made the smaller one sigh and enter the room.

Richie closed the door behind them, the room was like a warehouse but it looked quite cozy, there was a small space in a corner where apparently Richie's stuff was, a small desk in there with comics and a mixtape on top of it, a bunch of other items around the little corner space that Eddie continued examining while he walked cautiously, wondering if Richie spended a lot of time there. He sure did, it felt like he could live in there if he wanted.

"I come here quiet often" Richie shrugs and states as if he could read Eddie's mind.

"It's...it's actually quite nice Rich" Eddie confessed "Thanks Eds" Richie replied with a little grin, walking towards where the boy was "Don't call me that. What are we doing here anyways?" the smaller one questioned "Well Eddie I wanted to tell you something important-" Richie got interrupted by the sound of a click coming from the door.

Eddie quickly turned around "What was that sound?" the boy asked, already panicking "Probably the door" the taller boy replied casually
"Wh-what do you mean?" Eddie said widening his eyes and walking quickly towards the door, trying to push it open but failed, the door was locked.

"Why does the door don't open?!" Eddie nearly yelled, desperately trying to open the door once again, Richie quickly walked to his side "I don't know...it's probably locked" the taller one answered, nervous that the smaller boy was now angry at him, that was truthly the last thing he wanted "Yeah no shit! Do you have a key or something?" the smaller boy asked "No, but it can be open from the outside" Richie replied "But we're inside" Eddie said trying not to panic more "Someone has to open the door at any moment" the taller one said, in fact he was as terrified as Eddie, he didn't plan this at all, this is the last thing he wanted to happen "Who else knows about this place?" Eddie asked, already shaking "No one-" "No one?!" the smaller one yelled and grabbed the inhaler from the fanny pack he always carry with "Jesus Christ, Richie!" "Okay, don't panic, Bev knows about this place" Richie said, he told the girl about that place, in fact, she was the only one with knowledge about Richie's safe place, Richie was just hoping that the smaller boy could calm down "Beverly?! How much would it take for Beverly to know we're here, she's probably out there with Ben or something and-and we'll spend all the day here until-until we die!" the younger boy exclaimed "You're overreacting Eds"

That's how Richie Tozier lost the opportunity of confessing his feelings towards Eddie Kaspbrack.

Meanwhile Beverly wasn't with Ben, she took Eleven and Max to the mall, the only mall in Derry actually.

"Where should we go first?" Beverly asked excitedly, turning around to see Eleven, who was watching around in awe, even when she went there a hundred times.

"Would you like to go to a clothing store first?" Max asked, grabbing the taller's hand, who nodded eagerly. She knew well enough Eleven loved to just try clothes on and play around with them, just as Max loved to.

The three girls ran towards the first clothing shop they found.

The afternoon went like this: Max trying to get Eleven's attention but Beverly gaining it instead, Max felt something she weirdly has felt in her entire life, she felt jealous.

Eleven always payed attention to Max when she was around her, the taller girl was a great listener and that's something the redhead has always appreciated, she loved how Eleven made her feel so special by just listening and paying attention to her.

But now Eleven was laughing and playing around with Beverly. Max however didn't blame her girlfriend, or the other ginger girl, she blamed herself and she wasn't sure why. Mabye for not trying to get along with Beverly or just for being jealous at the other girl's friendship.
